SATSANG is an ongoing conceptual and performance practice initiated by Ramy Cadwell (b. Miami).

Cadwell’s work occupies the intersection of social sculpture, relational aesthetics, and acute human care. His practice utilizes strict relational liturgies—including the serving of tea, sustained open-eye meditation, and direct existential inquiry—to systematically dismantle modern social performance and map the boundaries of non-dual consciousness within highly contested public spaces.

Formed by a Master of Science in Nursing from Columbia University and an intensive background as a Registered Nurse in psychiatric emergency, chemical dependency crisis, and assertive community treatment, Cadwell treats human attention, psychological containment, and presence as a fine art medium. His experience spans public policy, commercial photography production, and deep-field crisis intervention, culminating in durational, unpermitted site-specific interventions executed across international hemispheres—from the Bienal de São Paulo and MASP to the public squares of Rome and La Biennale di Venezia.

Cadwell lives and works in New York City, where he serves as an Adjunct Clinical Faculty member at the Pacific College of Health Sciences.
